Good salary, but low empathy within department - Engineer Support Stampede Solution Employee Review

There were some good moments here. I did learn quite a bit just by being thrown into real work early, especially handling change requests and understanding how the system flows. Training was provided at the start, including a session with the product team at another location.Its more on the introduction of the system the company provided. That part was actually quite nice like getting out of the office, meeting people, and seeing how things work from a different angle. My senior business analyst did try her best to guide me even though she was always busy. I appreciated that effort a lot. The other BAs I worked with were also in the same boat, so we were struggling in our ways. Despite the stress, there were genuinely few good people and small moments that made the experience memorable in a way.

The main issue for me was the lack of proper onboarding structure for the complexity of the system. I didn’t feel prepared enough to handle the workload within the expected timeframe so I spent a lot of time figuring things out on my own. Even with a hybrid setup (some days in office, mostly working from home), it often felt harder. At home especially, you are expected to figure things out on your own with limited guidance, and it can get overwhelming when you’re stuck and everyone is busy. Support was there, but everyone was so busy, so it wasn’t always easy to get help when you really needed clarity. I also had a difficult experience with the head of HR communication style, which at times felt hostile during direct interactions, even though the public-facing side of events felt very welcoming. I don’t really remember every detail anymore, just that it didn’t sit well with me.

- you can learn a lot with the hectic nature of the projects - WFH is entirely in the team lead's discretion - good colleagues - decent facilities in office

- old technology, quite slow for growth - BA team is mishandled since a lot of people come in and go and they need to relearn client requirements and application knowledge - a lot of office politics - if a certain employee from product team don't like you then your career will end there and its time to move on - HR will defend that product team employee because of seniority for some reason lmao - bonused promised by CEO himself last year, then he says its delayed for 2 months then complete silence. And 1 year later finally get. And some people dont get it even
